WHAT IS CFS AND WHY IT ISN’T WORKING

CFS stands for Canadian Federation of Students. Each year, students are charged $157,000 annually in membership fees to the CFS but the CFS has not provided any useful services to the University of Regina students since 2014. In fact, the last time they were on our campus in a meaningful fashion was in 2016. In 2012, they closed the CFS Saskatchewan and have been moving our money out of the province, where it was supposed to be used to make student life here better, to Ontario. Your money is better invested here on your campus. With it we could provide more food and other essentials for our URSU Cares Pantry; boost Project, Event and Conference Funding so more students can enhance their education; and provide more focused advocacy and lobbying approaches to benefit all of our students.
